Photograph: Bryan O'BrienA power generating company has been given permission to bring a High Court challenge over a decision by grid manager EirGrid to refuse its application to participate in a forthcoming auction that will determine who can sell electricity to the grid.
Those who qualify for the auction are chosen by the grid manager, which in the Republic of Ireland is EirGrid.Sligo hotel with sea views for €7m Kilshane says it did so, submitting two proposed generating gas turbine projects of 299 megawatts at Huntstown in north Dublin. Mr McBride said his client would seek leave to apply for an injunction but whether it went ahead would be dependent on what the defendants had to say once they had been supplied with the papers in the leave to bring judicial review proceedings.
However, Mr McBride said, EirGrid was comparing itself, as a statutory company required for instance to put contracts out to public tender, with Kilshane which is a private operator and not subject to this and other restrictions.
